Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

Shaking a stack of paper in his hand, Drew raised his lips and asked, "Someone just stuffed something into your pocket, don't you feel it?"

"I thought these girls were eating my tofu." Of course, Eric couldn't feel it. It was just that I didn't go too far and reached for the paper from Drew, only to find that it was originally written as a contact. Way photos.

In the past two years, the protagonist of the Eric film has no longer faced the ordinary Actor for sea elections. He only sent audition invitations to the qualified and well-known Actor. He is not very involved in the selection of supporting actors, so he has not encountered this for a long time. This kind of thing, looking at the pictures of these young and beautiful girls, for a time, it still produced a long-lost freshness. It seems that a few years ago, he just made his debut in Hollywood with "Home Alone". At that time, he held party at his home in North Hollywood. I have encountered similar things.

Eric is getting together with Drew to comment on the photo of the girl in the opponent, the door of the Drew office was pushed open, and a smart black professional suit Elizabeth came in: "Eric, I heard Ellie said you are here, I thought she was wrong. "

"Good morning, Liz," Eric stuffed the stack of photos to Drew and stepped forward to hug the girl and kiss: "You are so beautiful today."

Although Elizabeth enjoys the embrace of Eric, he feels that he is staring at the burning eyes of Drew. He can only rub some Eric cheeks uncomfortably, and then push him away, playing with a strand of blonde hair in front of him, Said: "The audition is about to start, I will take you to meet some of the main creators of" Buffy "."

"Well, let's go," Eric nodded. The three of them left the office together, walked through an open office area, and walked into a spacious room for auditioning.

Several people talking in a low voice in the room saw the three of them coming in, and all stood up, their eyes focused on Eric.

"Eric, this is David Greenwalt," Elizabeth first pointed to a middle-aged white man wearing black-frame glasses who thought he was about 40 years old: "He is very good at youth and horror film and television production. Out of the 1980s I have played several campus comedies on shoots, and I also had two episodes of "X File" on Director last year. We invited him to be the Director of the first season of "Buffy". "

"Hello, Mr. Williams." David Greenwalt reached out with a smile and shook hands with Eric: "Nice to meet you, I am your fan."

"Thank you," Eric smiled and let go of the other person's hand, but did not find the shadow of this person in his memory, though. Hearing that Elizabeth just said that David Greenwalt shoots had been in the episode of "X-Files", the other party was estimated to be Director under Fox TV Network.

"This is Mr. Joss Whedon, screenwriter of" Buffy "," Elizabeth soon pointed to the second person.

Eric shook hands with each other again. At this time, Joss Whedon was just in the early stages of 30. A smart look looks much better than the big beard in Eric memory.

Introduced several other main creators briefly, and the talents sat down in a row behind a long table.

Eric resigned from the middle position that he had originally arranged for himself, and chose the leftmost seat. He came over with a pastime. It didn't mean to mix this audition.

Look at the stack of Actor forms handed to you by Tina Fey. Eric took it and returned it directly: "Tina, I do n’t want this. How much did you make the script of" Buffy "?"

Everyone in the audition room paid attention to this. Tina Fey did n’t dare to say anything. He took over the Eric and put it back in the folder. He pushed his glasses and said, "The first six episodes script have already Finished, the script plot is still under discussion. "

"Then show me the script of the first six episodes."

Tina Fey looked at Drew and Elizabeth sitting in the middle, and nodded to Eric quickly. He walked out of the audition room and returned again after a while, handing a printed copy to Eric.

The audition started on time at ten o'clock, Eric randomly looked at the "Buffy" script. When I met the audition girl who felt good, I stopped to watch the other party's performance for a while. In addition, after listening to the serious tone of Drew and other creatives asking questions to the auditioners, Eric finally realized that the girl who always pretended to be an adult really grew up.

As a TV series project developed by TG this year, "Buffy" also represents the ambition of several women in TV series. In addition to the famous Producer named Eric, both Elizabeth and Drew personally took on the role of Producer. Although TG has grown to surpass the size of many old-named Film Studio of Hollywood, but because of the backing of Firefly and Fox, TG does not get involved in the release, so the production has become The company's only core business, with no distractions in mind, although it is necessary to be more hands-on, is able to keep everything organized.

Because it was the last round of auditions, the corresponding process was much more detailed. Only two girls passed by two in the morning. TG kindly hosted the girls who had not participated in the audition in the restaurant of the Fox building.

Eric did not join in the excitement, but had lunch with Elizabeth and Drew in the TG company ’s lounge. Tina Fey, who had to go to the restaurant with other company employees, was also stopped by Drew.

After the waiter who came to deliver the meal left, Elizabeth could not wait to ask: "Eric, how do you feel about the girls in the morning?"

"It's good, you just look at the selection, I don't comment," Eric tore the lunch wrapper and said casually.

This is my heart. Although Hollywood has countless TV series shootings every year, but Buffy hasn't started production yet, it has been determined that the promising TV series is the object of many Brokerage Firm and Actor competition. Previously, "Buffy" has gone through two rounds of elimination. Up to now, there are only 16 candidates left. It is possible to kill this stage. The strength of Actor is basically not much of a problem. Now only look at how the creative team chooses. .

At this time, in addition to the performance of Actor itself during the audition, it also began to test the other soft power of Actor. If the manager of Actor has sufficient contacts and can privately contact the producer with the right to speak, then Actor is selected. Is very likely. Of course, this time is often the moment when Director or Producer, who have the right to speak, grab private ‘welfare’. The little Actor who was eager to become famous met with hints that they would basically send them to the door, and even if they were found to have been cheated afterwards, they could often only admit that they were out of luck.

Think of it. Eric smiled and said to Elizabeth: "Liz, this is a good opportunity for you Oh."

Elizabeth was a bit confused at first, but soon understood it, seeing Eric joking about the original thing again. Somehow, he gave him a white eye and bowed his head to eat lunch.

"Speaking of it, I haven't seen Julia in a long time," Eric saw that Elizabeth didn't fight with himself as before, so he changed the topic: "This Nizi really knocked a stick and took a step. I asked her to start shooting at about this time last year The movie, she really made a tepid one, and then there was no movement. "

"Hehe ..."

I do n’t know what I thought of. Elizabeth suddenly laughed when he heard Eric.

Tina Fey looked up in confusion, and some did not understand why Elizabeth laughed.

Drew also grinned, and said to Eric: "This is actually to blame you. If you go to Beverly Hills and learn Julia, she must be diligent."

Eric looked at Drew with a grinning look, some foxes wonder if this little girl also knows Julia's ... things?

Though thinking so, though. Eric still said: "Well, I'll check it out tonight."

The audition in the afternoon started soon. Eric continued to boil soy sauce. I thought that the whole audition would be seen by several other creators of "Buffy" ​​led by Eric, and gradually relaxed, I thought this audition After spending so plainly, a figure of a tall and slender girl who entered the audition room immediately caught the attention of Eric.

Another "acquaintance"!

Eric lamented the coincidence in her heart and raised her head to listen carefully to the girl who introduced herself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Charlize Theron and I am eighteen years old. From South Africa ..."

Although the Charlize Theron has grown to more than one meter and seven at this time, baby fat is still hanging on his face, which looks a bit green, but the natural laziness in his eyes has already possessed the scent of stunner after a few years. The girl originally introduced herself skillfully. His eyes inadvertently glanced over the Eric sitting at the far corner, his eyes narrowed for a moment, and there was a brief surprise, but he quickly relaxed, but the following eyes involuntarily glanced at Eric.

Eric also noticed the momentary gaffe of Charlize Theron, when he came over in the morning. I did n’t see each other in the hallway. Obviously the other party came here for the audition afterwards. It is probably because of this that Charlize Theron did n’t know that he was sitting in this room. After all, it was hard to kill the last round of auditions. Girls all know the intensity of this competition, and of course it is impossible to take the initiative to reveal any information to the latecomers. Some previous audition girls who knew that Eric was in this room have more or less actively tried to interact with Eric during the audition process. Although there are no results, you can also see the imagination of these girls.

After introducing Charlize Theron, Elizabeth sitting in the middle asked: "Miss Theron, your information shows that you have been studying ballet since the age of six, and have also participated in a ballet troupe of New York. So what is it? Did you give up this job and switch to Actor? "

Charlize Theron said quickly: "Because I suffered a knee injury when I danced last year, it took me a few months to recover. In the process of healing, I feel that dancing may not be suitable for me. My childhood dream was to be one. Name Actor, so just after the injury, I started to study acting at a drama school in New York while working part-time. "

Another voice quickly asked: "After holding on for twelve years, you suddenly gave up like this. Don't you feel sorry? Maybe if you hold on for a few more years, you may become the most shining star on the Broadway stage. ? "

Charlize Theron has a short hesitation in his expression, and Eric is also curious how the other party will answer. Obviously, this question Charlize Theron was not prepared in advance.

Although this question has little to do with this interview, Charlize Theron also knows that it is impossible for him to refuse to answer. After thinking for a while, he said: "I do n’t feel it ’s a pity if someone realizes that what they are doing is not What she wants, but also to force herself to persevere and waste time, that is a pity and sad thing. "

It seems that I am very satisfied with this answer from Charlize Theron. After being asked a few simple questions, the audition entered the performance stage.

Most of the performance scenes are shots in script in front of Eric. The character of Buffy in the first season is still a bit immature and young. If she is stripped of her status as a "celestial chooser", she and most of them will enter adolescence Like high school students, they are naive and rebellious, full of longing for hazy love, but they are also not confident when most girls face their favorite boys.

It's just that because the impression of most of the screen characters of Charlize Theron in Eric's memory is basically similar to the sturdy picture of Queen Queen holding a pair of wrenches and striking the man's leg bones. Imitating Charlize Theron of the high school girl's shyness, Eric feels that there are more violations.

Therefore, when Charlize Theron performed Buffy to watch the favorite boy leave, and some unsurely asked Giles ‘Do you think this outfit would make me look fat’, Eric finally could n’t help laughing.

Some sudden laughs not only played the consider as finished Charlize Theron performance, but also made everyone in the audition room watch it.

"Sorry, sorry," Eric quickly waved his hand: "I just think ... um, it's okay, you continue."

......

Leaving the Fox Headquarters building, Charlize Theron lifted his feet upsetly and kicked a foot on a lamppost in front of the building, but his inner irritability did not dissipate.

I blame the abominable guy.

Charlize Theron believes that there is absolutely nothing wrong with her performance at the beginning. After all, she has prepared for this audition for so long. Not only has she watched the movie version of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" many times in a row, her manager has also passed some private channels Found some more detailed information for her. But because the guy smiled abruptly during the audition, it was difficult for her to continue the audition calmly, so there were several mistakes in a row.

Although those auditions were not too obvious, when she left, she still saw disappointment in the faces of several people. (To be continued.)
